Oh how well I do remember back to old camp meetin' timesI lingered in the shadows to hide this face of mineI could barely hear the preacher barely hear the olders prayThen one night I heard the still small voice sayMove up a little closer don't hide in shadowsCome now and be counted with the children of the LordMove up a little closer climb high up the mountainMove up a little closer to the kingdom of the Lord(Piano)I pretended not to listen tried to close my burning earsAlthough I'd been a sinner who wasted many yearsSo I turned to leave the meetin' but somehow I couldn't startOnce more I heard the voice in my heartMove up a little closer...(Dobro)I'm so thnakful for the message that was sent to me that nightI dawned by Christian armor and I bowed to spread the lightsNow when I see you sinner standing in the shadows dimI bow my head and say this praer for himMove up a little closer...
